Why You Need to Wash Your Nostrils

Wash your FACE & NOSTRILS (not just your hands) and brush your teeth as soon as you get home, and BEFORE BED. Why? Coronavirus infects lung cells, leading to pneumonia. How does it get in your lungs? 1)Inhaling infected particles when someone coughs/sneezes/spits/breathes in your face or 2) virus gets to your nose/mouth when you touch your face during the day, then infected mucus/saliva travels down to your lungs. The less virus in your nose/mouth, the less risk & severity of pneumonia.

In fact, MOST viral pneumonia is caused by saliva and mucus that gets aspirated (accidentally inhaled) into your lungs during SLEEP. This happens even more if you snore. So sleep on an extra pillow and practice good bedtime hygiene. Stay safe & healthy, everyone!
